L.A. Clippers vs Detroit Pistons - NBA Betting Picks

The Clippers have been one of the toughest teams in the NBA on both ends and Detroit is the next team up to try and slow them down. The NBA Odds for this one are pretty sharp, but there is room to bet the under still if Detroit’s defense shows up and doesn’t have a Turkey Day hangover.

The Clippers’ and Pistons have similar things working for the under in their NBA Odds of 201 ½. Despite it going up three points since the line opened on Thanksgiving, these teams are two of the four best defensive teams in the NBA right now, while the Pistons, playing at home, play at the eighth slowest pace in the league.

While the Clippers’ offense has been one of the best, if you assume these two play at a pace of around 95 possessions in this one, hopefully Detroit’s defense plays. Both of these teams are holding their opponents to effective field goal percentages of less than 48 percent, but if the Clippers get hot it’s over for us. However, while it’s the weakest of the three plays here, I still like the under for a unit.
